Not all was lost. I was wondering if you noticed the USB Key upgrade. Though, I agree, we do need a do-it-yourself-update terminal. It's definitely on our list. I think next time with no OnAir Tour conflict, a bigger pushback from us to speakers for deeper topics and a venue closer to the European Flex hotspots (Benelux, UK), things will pick up to "expected" 360|Flex levels. Funny lil tidbit though, you only experienced 360|Flex '07 in San Jose. A lot of our speakers skipped Seattle because they felt that San Jose 07 was "too light" on tech topics, "too markety" of an event and all around not that good. By default, our constant desire for improvements seem to smooth out these kinda "less desirables" by Seattle and we were rolling full steam by Atlanta. We'll definitely be working hard behind the scenes to bridge the gap between the 2 Euro shows. The good thing is that the community will have one more year to grow and become more tech savvy with Flex. This will benefit our attendees as there will be more hard core Flex geeks in the speaker pool. I know you won't be first in line to buy, but I'm hoping 360|Flex Euro '09 will be good enough to entice you back. Thanks again for the reviews. Whew! Not all was lost.

Funny lil tidbit though, you only experienced 360|Flex ‘07 in San Jose. A lot of our speakers skipped Seattle because they felt that San Jose 07 was “too light” on tech topics, “too markety” of an event and all around not that good. By default, our constant desire for improvements seem to smooth out these kinda “less desirables” by Seattle and we were rolling full steam by Atlanta.
